Louisiana  |  Wills and Trusts

The inheritance is just like money......the money is used to buy a house that you and your spouse live in......basically, the money used remains separate and the value of the house, less the separate part, is community.......example, $100,000 is put toward a house during your marriage, then at divorce, when the house is sold, or valued, the first $100,000 is reimbursed to the spouse who put it up.
